Explore how F.P. Journe collectors celebrated the return to fine dining and travel, showcasing their watches and sharing experiences on WatchProSite.

ChristianDK's "Finally Francois-Paul Friday" post captures a pivotal moment for many luxury watch enthusiasts: the return to fine dining and social gatherings after a period of global restrictions. His excitement, paired with the choice of an F.P. Journe timepiece, highlights how collectors mark significant life events with horological companions. This article explores the community's shared experiences and wristwear during this unique time.

....And Im super excited because in a few hours Im off to my first restaurant visit in a year. I cant believe I should ever write these words, but here we are....

We are a group of friends who love fine wine and dining - who meet regularly to pursue and explore the pleasures of the table. We take turns to come up with a theme of wine and food. Tonight is going to be a reunion and we are off to a local michelin restaurant I have been wanting to try for quite some time. Of course such an important event must be accompanied with a good watch and I could think of no other than this one....

What are you up to this weekend? Whats on your wrist? Please let us know

A happy weekend to you all.

best

Christian

Whoop whoop!

Finally you’ll get the chance to enjoy some good food in great company, I’m very happy for you! 2 days ago we arrived in Portofino, Italy, at our favorite hotel ever: Belmond splendido. While Europe is opening up slowly we took the chance to drive up to italy, first Milan and now Portofino. Last year September was our first time at the Belmond and immediately decided to book for the end of May this year. Well make this a yearly recurring event, it’s such a joy to stay in this beautiful area with
